Mikey, hearty congrats to you! My gosh, how does one lose so fast? It's amazing! I'm 4 days out and trying to do the liquids every half hour. How did you do with that? Gee, sure hope I do as well, although I wouldn't balk at a little slower either... Keep on keepin' on...! Hugs, Carole

Hi Richard, I am not doing well with the water...hard to get it all in. I am starting to use propel and I can handle that better. Protein, I am doing 2 shakes a day with Elite Whey chocolate mint powder...40 gms each shake. I tried a hard boiled egg this morning for the 1st time since surgery and it went down good. Thanks for the support!! How are you doing??? Mikey RN

I am so glad to read your post!!!! I had my first post-op appointment on 3/23 and I am 22 lbs down. I made the poor nurse weigh me again lol. At first I thought I was doing something wrong.I am on soft solids now and I am starting to have some problems, mainly that solid foods do not like me now and come right back up. But I have a Dr. appointment for that so I should have an answer soon. Malia
